Abstract: A spray gun includes a handle portion and an extension
portion. A nozzle is connected with an outer end of the
extension portion. An electrode assembly is disposed in
the extension portion to establish an electrical field to
electrostatically charge particles of coating material. A
coating material flow control member and a purge air flow
control member are disposed on the handle portion.
Operation of either one of the two flow control members
actuates a membrane switch assembly. Operation of the
purge air flow control member directs the flow of air to
the coating material passage in the extension portion to
remove excess coating material from the passage and from
the nozzle. Different size hand grips may be mounted on
the handle portion of the spray gun to accommodate
operators having hands of different sizes. Passages for
air and electrical conductors are formed in the handle and
extension portions of the spray gun by cooperation between
outer side walls of the handle and extension portions and
inner wall structures. A voltage multiplier unit in the
extension portion of the spray gun is exposed to a flow of
air to transfer heat from the voltage multiplier.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for simply and easily searching for information relating to
a broadcast programme desired by a user by providing keywords corresponding to
proper information included in detailed information relating to received broadcast
programmes. In this method, if detailed information relating to the broadcast
programmes is received, at least one keyword for each of the broadcast programmes
is detected from the received detailed information relating to the broadcast
programmes. Then, a broadcast programme desired by a user is searched using the
detected keywords. Accordingly, since a user has only to select a keyword in order
to search for information relating to the desired broadcast programme, an
information search becomes simplified. In addition, since the user uses keywords
that are provided by a system, the user does not need to know or determine a
proper keyword in advance.

Abstract: A particle therapy system capable of confirming energy of an accelerated charged particle beam before the charged particle beam is irradiated to an irradiation target. A beam position monitor is disposed in a synchrotron, and a cavity voltage monitor is associated with an RF cavity for acceleration. An ion beam orbiting within the synchrotron is accelerated with application of an RF voltage applied to the RF cavity and is extracted from the synchrotron with application of an RF voltage applied to an RF knockout electrode. Based on a cavity voltage signal detected by the cavity voltage monitor, a frequency counter measures the frequency of the RF voltage applied to the RF cavity. Based on a voltage detected by the beam position monitor, a beam signal processing unit measures the position of a beam orbit. Based on the frequency of the RF voltage and the position of the beam orbit, the energy judgment processing unit determines whether energy of the ion beam after the end of the acceleration is normal or abnormal.

Abstract: Disclosed is a Hierarchical Storage Management (HSM) system and
method where client systems (100,105,110) are connected to physical
storage devices via a storage virtualization system (SVS) (130) which is
embedded in a storage network (135). The SVS provides virtual disk
volumes to the client systems as an abstraction of the physical storage
devices (115,120,125). The client systems have no direct connection to
the physical storage devices and the SVS provides an abstract view of
these devices, which allows it to utilize the available physical storage
space by spreading storage assigned to the individual client systems
across the physical storage devices. The core component of the SVS is a
block-mapping table (BMT) that translates each virtual block address
being issued by the client systems to a corresponding physical block
address.
